Oh I have definitely found a range of expertise in massage therapists and physical therapists.

I have only gone to 1 acupuncturist but I am very impressed with her skills. She spends time asking me about what is going on with my body each time before she starts and asks later what worked and how I felt later in the day. She studied massage therapy and worked at that to get through the Oriental and Asian Medical school which took 9 years. She said having the knowledge of the body from massage therapy training definitely helped her in her further studies to learn acupuncture.

As for massage therapists, I have again hit the jackpot in finding Michael, who started at a Massage Envy I had joined. I couldn’t believe how skilled he was and his knowledge of the body is amazing. He used to work on the Dallas Cowboys. He also asks what’s going on when I arrive, what I want him to concentrate on, he is trained in myofacial release and all sorts of other types of massage. He started his own business recently.

Both the acupuncturist and my massage therapist are located within a 5 minute drive of my house. Wow, lucky me.
